Haim have unveiled their first single (proper) from upcoming second record Something To Tell You - it's called "Want You Back".
The euphoric, '90s-tinged funk ballad is like something ripped from the Matilda OST and follows last week's riotous "Right Now" session by Paul Thomas Anderson (yep, that Paul Thomas Anderson). Ariel Rechtshaid is on production duties for both.
A follow up to 2013's excellent debut Days Are Gone has been long overdue. Last year the trio axed dates to get it finished, but now there are lots of major shows on the horizon - including one at this summer's Glastonbury. Find out what else they've got planned.
Something To Tell You is released 7 July via Polydor.
